Sydney in 6 weeks! :)


Woohoo! Next payday, we're going to buy our reservations at a hotel for a week in Sydney! I've been scouring the internet for good deals and just found a great one through Expedia.com. We're going to be staying in a quiet hotel in a quieter area of Sydney that's close to the Sydney Opera House and all the attractions of Darling Harbor. The exchange rate between the US$ and AU$ is nearly $1 to $1, with a few cents in our favor so we're happy about that.

It will be a long flight (longer than the one we took from Seattle to Tokyo, actually!) but we're really excited. This is our first real vacation together, too, so I guess it's like our (3.5 years delayed) honeymoon, too ;)

Hey sounds great, Kids. While you're there, if you feel like running and the blue line is still down, you can jog the very course travelled by Hiromi Yanaguchi when she won the Olympic Marathon gold medal a few years back. Sure be a great story for the locals when you get back.

Hey Kids, have fun in Sydney, Australia. Take a lot of pictures and please share them with us when you come back. I'd love to see some breathtaking sceneries and photos of kangaroos. Make sure to make copies of your passports, ID cards and important documents. Mi Hija, you know the drill. Smile!
